Late on Sunday ( November 12, 2017) over 400 people died in between the border of Iran and Iraq. What caused this many to die was a huge earthquake. Many people felt the earthquake as Turkey and Pakistan. The earthquake had a depth of 23 km. Many were informed to stay away from tall building and try to stay safe. The prime minister created defense teams who provided people with help. This is probably the most severe earthquake they have had, many buildings and houses have been destroyed and many are trying to survive
synthesis: They had have previous earthquakes for example the one in 2003 was a 6.6 magnitude which injured and killed many.This earthquake hit the city of Bam which is east of the country. Prayers go out to all the people... and hope they recover safely! Many earthquakes have been happening in the last few months and big ones at that! I hope everything from now on gets better

ReplyDeleteThis is really sad because of all the natural disasters happening at once, and it will be a long road to recovery.
ReplyDeleteIt is awful to hear that communities continue to go through these tragedies.
